He does appear to be alive and well. Or so a search in google reveals.

Interestingly enough, he was Christopher Reeves physical trainer for Superman in 1978.

Also, for google-giggles, type "David Prowse" in the search field then look at the last two entries. :)

David Prowse is a commander in the 501st Imperial costume club. :p

Ah, so he is still alive. :D

Then I understand why that had gone past my head without me noticing. :p

I also met Darth Vader (Dave Prowse) in a book shop in Glasgow, when I was a wee boy and he signed my copy of Return of the Jedi, which of course I still have. He looked amazing and terrifying. I'll never forget it.

He also done a road safety campaign here in the UK about 20 years ago, where he dressed in a bright green Jumpsuit - The Green Cross Code Man.

Man that takes me back :D

Why did you leave out James Earl Jones as a choice? He's as much (if not more) Vader than any of these guys.
